Answer:

<u><em>A for certain.</em></u>

Explanation:

I got it right on the test, thanks to the other brainly answerer teresecaway. But knowing the answer doesnt help much if you dont know WHY. The reason WHY is as follows. At first you might think it would be B, because the downwards force is greater than the upwards force. I thought that maybe upwards force would also count as the table supporting it, but no, thats just structural inanimate solid table. The answer is A. gravity would have to be HIGHLY raised or somebody pressing down on it, to make it fall through the table.

sashaice [31]

Answer:

52.47706 mph

54.5 mph

Explanation:

The average speed is given by

V_{av}=\dfrac{Distance}{Time}

V_{av}=\dfrac{100}{\dfrac{50}{44}+\dfrac{50}{65}}\\\Rightarrow V_{av}=52.47706\ mph

Julie's average speed on the way to Grandmother's house is 52.47706 mph

V_{av}=\dfrac{44+65}{2}\\\Rightarrow V_{av}=54.5\ mph

Average speed on the return trip is 54.5 mph

You have an electrically neutral toy that you divide into two pieces. You notice that at least one of those pieces has an electr
den301095 [7]

Answer:

The pieces will attract one another

Explanation:

From the law of conservation of energy, we know that energy can neither be created nor destroyed, but transformed. If one piece of the toy that was neutral ends up having an electric charge (positive or negative), from the conservation of energy, the other piece must have a charge opposite to that on the other charged piece but equal in magnitude. These two pieces which are oppositely charged attracts each other, this shows that electric charge is conserved.
